Utah’s Governor Cox took over Friday morning’s national broadcast announcing the assassin of Charlie Kirk to grandstand and promote himself.
Steve Bannon shared this on the War Room after Cox took over the press conference and stepped in front of Kash Patel to claim “We got him!”
Saw it this morning
We didn’t need a #disagreebetter lecture from Gov Cox
We need more information about what happened, how this kid got radicalized, who else was involved, etc.

Cox used the limelight for his own grandstanding and MAGA didn’t like it at all. The only ones who liked it appeared to come from the left.
It’s no surprise, Charlie Kirk was not a fan of Utah’s Governor Cox.

Charlie knew what the citizens of Utah know, Cox is not MAGA. Utah’s Phil Lyman knows Cox as well.
Lyman challenged the 2024 GOP primary he says was against GOP rules and not necessary since he won the nomination for Utah Governor at the state convention. This primary was put in place by the RINOs in Utah who didn’t accept the GOP convention results that Lyman won.
Here is Lyman explaining what went on in the Utah’s governor’s race last year.

Yeah it is about time this poser was exposed. Governor Cox is not on our side.
They all grandstanded at that presser, with the various LEOs patting themselves on the back for capturing the assassin, despite the kid having been turned in by his father.
Well, to be fair, without those pictures and without the kid’s boyfriend speaking up, the dad never would have had any idea his son was involved.
What about the other 2 so-called assassins he arrested first? I’m sorry, but when they forced Bongino to lie on national TV about Epstein’s “suicide”, I lost my faith in Kash.
Under Cox/Henderson Utah has selections, not elections. We have mail in voting, drop boxes, no election observers (at least in Salt Lake County where it’s only employees of the dem county clerk that process ballots), electronic voting machines, ERIC, dirty voter rolls, motor voter, no voter ID (how can you have voter ID with automatically sent ballots), more ballots than eligible voters…. Is there anything else? Salt Lake County is essentially Maricopa County-lite.

I watched that news conference, and Cox gave way too much information about the case. A defense attorney will place every word he says under a microscope to see if it can be used to defend his client.
He’s a Cox
LOL
Full length commercials on videos now? C’mon GP, you should be better than that. The ones that you can skip after 5 seconds, and two in a row, are bad enough, but full length? Eff off GP!
This egomaniac Rino Republican politician turd thought he’d take his shot at getting himself into the 2028 Presidential race.
Gee a politician grandstanding, never seen that before. I can count on my thumbs the decent politicians I’ve seen in my 80 years on this rock.
Another governor who will be rewarded like the OKC governor was. Connect the dots.
What is it with Utah and RINOS?
Some… in Utah are Globalists. They put an “R” behind their name and then act in a way that is utterly unconservative. You can guess as to the whys and hows. It is U T A H.
What a shameful act. If I wasn’t considering running for KY, its all politics all the time which is complete and utter BS.

YES.
Yeah it is about time this poser was exposed. Governor Cox is not on our side.
Enough exposure. OPEN TRIBUNALS NOW. GITMO NOW. HANGINGS NOW. FIRING SQUADS NOW. WE THE PEOPLE MUST *DEMAND* IT NOW. When WE DO…WATCH WHAT HAPPENS.
By design, don’t you think? [WHO are they signaling and why?]
Truth.
He is slick, perhaps a little too slick?

YES.
Truth.
The question is not WHO is in on it. The question is WHO IS NOT? Traitors EVERYWHERE.
I went on Gateway Pundit and was enthusiastic about Cox’s speech. I feel betrayed.
Little did I know he was a progressive by his impressive speech. I don’t to be lied to, and with Cox’s past political progressive credentials, I now know he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Other posters at GP had glowing accounts too. I’m returning ASAP to delete my positive comments. Thank you, Joe.
There’s always something else. These corrupt creatures know no bounds. Especially when exposure is a plenty but JUSTICE is nowhere to be found. EXPOSURE. EXPOSURE. EXPOSURE. But, justice? [crickets] The question is: Who’s really running this “show”?

The citizens of the Great State of Utah owe the Kirk family sincere apologies and prayers.
1. Allowing Antifa, BLM, CPUSA et al Communist groups to operate freely.
2. Electing an azzhole as Governor.
Respectfully,

I don’t ever recall a governor so dominating the pressers in like situations…it is usually a local law enforcement officer or local FBI guy…this hi profile he might speak but not dominate the whole thing.
